Grill the reserved turkey skewers until cooked through.

For each order, toss 2 cups of the mixed greens with a tablespoon cilantro and 2 ounces of dressing. Place greens on a chilled plate and garnish with fanned mango slices and cucumbers.

Place 3 warm turkey satay skewers atop each salad and drizzle additional dressing over top of salad.
